Raw dough? Do’h not eat!

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urged consumers to stop eating raw cookie dough after a national salmonella outbreak hospitalized three people.

“Flour doesn’t look like a raw food, but most flour is raw,” the CDC cautioned in a report updated Thursday.

The agency’s report explained that raw, or unbaked, flour used to make baked goods such as cookies could be contaminated with salmonella germs.

The Mayo Clinic notes that eggs, also typically found in cookie dough, can be contaminated with bacteria.
